Dialog box for configuring a task
In the dialog box for configuring a task, the administrator can view or change the following settings:
Task name - The name that serves to identify the task.
Classification level - The classification of the fingerprints being created by the task. This setting is assigned the classification that was selected when creating the task.
Active - Select this check box to enable the server to the task automatically. When this check box is cleared, the task can only be run by hand using the console.
Schedule - The following settings specify when the server should be running the task:
Update automatically when directory contents change - The server runs the task whenever it detects changes in any of the folders that are subject to processing by that task.
 
Note: The server may delay the running of the task for about half a minute after detecting changes.
Update every <number> minutes - The server runs the task every time upon the lapse of the specified number of minutes. You can set the desired number of minutes.
If the Active check box is cleared, the Schedule settings have no effect.
Options - The following settings specify the documents and files to be processed by the given task:
Look for - The names of the files for processing. To separate names, use a semicolon (;). To denote any group of characters within a name, use an asterisk (*). An empty field means it is looking for any files.
Example: *.doc; *.docx matches any files with the doc or docx file name extension.
Look in - Path to the folder containing the files for processing. This can be a local folder or a network folder. The server must have sufficient access rights to read files in that folder. To specify a network folder, use its UNC path (\\server\share\folder). Multiple folders can be specified by separating their paths with a semicolon (;).
Including subfolders - When this check box is selected, the task will process files contained both in the folder specified in the Look in box and in all its subfolders. Otherwise, the task processes only the files contained directly in the folder specified, disregarding subfolders.
Unpack archives - When this check box is selected, the task will process files contained in archive files, such as in .zip files. Otherwise, the task handles archive files the same way as any other binary files.
